My car is getting some work done prior to the track season at FarnbacherLoles in CT and they are recommending the 97's up front and the 01's in the rear. Since I will be moving up from stock pads I can't compare vs. Pagids but they are a very reputable shop and know the GT3 inside and out.

Interesting. So maybe the 97 is the RS19/29 and the 01 is the RS14 for analogy sake?

Can't help here. I haven't made it to the track much since putting them on. Still feels great on the street though.

Rob-

The wear rate for my car has been very good. Easily twice that of Pagid Orange's and you don't have to fool with pad transfer which was a problem for me.

You can get them at OGRacing. For my car they have a set without wear sensors (who needs them anyway?) and they were like $70 cheaper than the same pads with sensors. Just tell Dan they're for the track and he'll hook you up!

I've got back to back track weekends comming up starting this weekend and just got a set as I've had a set on for more than a full year but they are getting a little low and I didn't want to be cought out.

FWIW I just ordered a set of PF 97's and they only come one way:no sensors. Didn't ask about the 01's

Thanks. For our cars, they don't come with sensors.

I also heard that the dust from the pads is very harmful to wheels and they should be cleaned off ASAP.
